i think john, wild and myself have given you plenty of advice to work with.

it must be hard to do it first time and on your own. when you look at good established presenters (such as hazel and stubbsy) they have fellow folk with them (such as steve davis and JP) they hare helping the presenter to share air time and the more people you have talking then you will have more time to gather your thoughts also you will be suprised how much someone elses speech helps you think of something to say when struggling.

you did this for the first time on your own and that in itself is an achievement

Never look up at the ceiling. If you need to review your notes, never move your head, just move your eyes, down, always. It comes across as being thoughtful.

Always come across as enthusiastic & use voice projection with it too. If a player missed a frame ball or a match ball for example, get across how important it was, the energy that could be felt in the arena & relay the expressions on both the players face's.

Practice, review your work, practice, review your work, all the time learning from your previous performances taking mental notes on what you done right & can use again.
